Chapter Four

Blue eyes blinking several time to adjust the bright light. Naruto turned on the soft bed, took a deep breath, and burrowed back into the warm sheets. With eyebrows furrowed and blue eyes which still shut 'Wait. This wasn't my room. Sunlight came in from the opposite side, and never shone on my face.' slowly the blue eyes opened once again and naruto slowly sat up. The teen blinked and took this time to peer about the room, taking in the new surroundings, looking at the expensive furniture, elegant decor, peaceful lighting. Naruto frowned after a moment the teen slapped his forehead 'Stupid.. I remember now, it was sasuke's home' and after yawned several time, the teen actually moved to get out of the bed.

His stomach growled lightly as his feet touched the cold wooden surface of the floor and opted to go in search of food. "Hm.. i wonder if sasuke already awake" mumble the blonde still continue walking to downstairs and searching the kitchen.

After finally found the kitchen with no difficult, 'It's seems like sasuke still not awake' the teen finally decide to making some breakfast and start searched through the kitchen cabinets and refrigerator for some eggs and breads "Aa, found it.. I will make some for sasuke too. After all this is his home" mumble the blonde haired teen.

Quickly and as efficiently as ever, the teen made a breakfast. After finish, naruto move toward table and prepared it "Okay, finish! Now, I just need to wake him.." said naruto with enthusiasms.

"Wake who?" said sasuke from the kitchen's doorway.

Turn around and.. "Kyaaaaaah.. don't sneaking up like that!" yelled naruto still pointed the accusing finger to sasuke. And with the brightest smile "Morning sasuke.. breakfast is ready."

Raising his left eyebrow "Hn, morning. Are you always this cheerful in the morning?" and taking a seat onto the stool behind the counter.

"Yup" come back the enthusiasm answer from naruto "Come on, lets eat before the food become cool."

After both of the teen seated, they both finally began eat. And naruto, who don't quite pay attention to the raven before, now can see sasuke with perfect view. Sasuke actually have dark hair, with almost a bluish tint. The black hair which usually spiked in the back now actually still damp, but drying. 'It's seems like he already taking a shower'. Sasuke too have pale but handsome face with perfectly shaped dark brows. And smoldering black eyes. The raven actually wore a dark blue sweatshirt over his white pants. And out of the corner of his eye, he could see that sasuke had very delicately begun cutting his egg and breads in small pieces. It was like an art. So neat and precise. After was finished, the raven placed his knife to the far left and took a sip of his water. He even patted his lips afterward. Naruto, who don't aware that sasuke actually caught his stare, still continue to gaze the raven. After a moment, some coughing sounds catch naruto attention. Blue eyes blinking several time, finally aware of his surrounding, and that sasuke actually catching his stare, blushing a bright shade of red. Quickly, naruto was adverted his gaze to his meal. Some of the blonde fall to his face and hide the still tint of pink in the tan face. And mumbling incoherent word under his breath which can be interpretation as 'stupid.. stupid.. stupid..' at the same time cutting his food with careless.

Black eyes actually watching with amusement look the whole time " .. dobe"

Immediately catching the insult "I'm not a dobe, teme!" yelling the blonde.

With smirk, the raven haired teen answer "Hn. Dobe", the blonde was about to say something but the raven cut him off "Thanks."

Blue eyes blinking several time "Huh? For what?" and looking curiously to the raven, waiting for answer.

"The breakfast. Its been a long time that someone cooking a meal for me" the raven said while casually sipping his coffee.

"Really?" naruto's blue eyes grew soft and he give the raven a warm smile "If so, I'll make a breakfast for you from now on".

The raven actually seems shocked from naruto answer, his chest suddenly filled with warm feeling and his heart was beating faster. But after a moment, sasuke quickly recovering form his shock "Don't say something you can't fulfill, dobe. "

Tilting his head, with puzzle look gracing in the blonde features "Huh?"

With sigh, the raven haired teen answer "After we finally find a place for you to stay, you actually will move out right?" after the raven get a nod from the blonde, sasuke continued "So, we can't be sure if we actually meet again anytime soon, let alone for you to make me a breakfast."

"Oh.." the blonde said with dejected voice and disappointment face.

Seeing the disappointment in the tan face, the raven haired teen feel the painful squeeze in his heart. Actually, puzzle by his sudden feeling. Sasuke attempt to change subject "Hn, dobe" finally catching the blonde attention, the raven continue "How long do you plan to stay in Konoha?" the blonde give the raven a questioning gaze again, but the raven elaborate "I need to know if you just need an inn or an apartment. So?"

Finally understand the meaning of sasuke question, the blonde said "Actually, I planning for stay in konoha for quite longtime. I need an apartment and.. a job"

"Job?" ask the raven with his blank expression.

"Yeah, how can I manage to pay for the apartment if I didn't even have a job" the blond said, fixing those big blue eyes on sasuke's black eyes.

With his chin resting on his folded hands, and his elbows propped up, the raven finally said "Hm.. I have an acquaintance who owned apartments. I will give you his address and just say you're my friend and need an apartment. His name is juugo. I'm sure he will help you." the blonde give the raven a nod indicating he understand perfectly "Sorry I can't accompany you, you know how my ankle condition"

Naruto giving the raven comforting smile "I know. Thanks sasuke. You already give me a lot of help."

The raven shove his hand in his pant pocket and take a piece of paper and then give it to the blonde "Here. This is the address. If you don't quite know the road around here, just take a taxi. I'm sure you can found it with no time."

"Yeah, thanks" said the blonde with gratitude.

The raven rolling his black eyes "You already said that, dobe"

"But, teme..." whined naruto with pouted expression in his face "You're really a life saver. Actually you help me a lot. You give me a place to stay. You shared your meal with me too. And now, you helping me to find an apartment. How can I not said 'thank you' a lot?" the blonde said with sincere.

Clearing his throat to avoid the shocked and embarrassed feeling "Hn" said sasuke while taking a sip of his coffee

Naruto chuckled from the expected answer, "I take that as a 'you're welcome' "

"Tch.. dobe" said sasuke while rolled his eyes

The blonde getting back up, taking the finished plate "Don't call me that, teme.." huffing naruto while bring them to the kitchen sink and washing it.

While the blonde cleaning the plate, sasuke actually enjoy reading his newspaper and occasionally taking a sip of his coffee. After a while, sasuke's peaceful moment was interupted by same coughing sound. Glancing form his newspaper "Hm.. ?" and raising his left eyebrow.

"Um.. ano, sasuke" somewhat hesitant, naruto continued "I will taking a shower now. Do you still need anything?" while biting his lips nervously.

Glaring, "dobe" obviously annoyed with such a dumb question "I don't need your help with anything. I perfectly fine with taking care of myself. You're my guest. You're not a maid here. So, don't treat you're self such one." growled sasuke still piss off.

"Stop glaring at me, teme," Naruto huffed, moving his gaze from the glaring raven."I'm just trying to be polite.."

"And don't." Sasuke cut him.

"Jeez.. don't cutting me off, teme." Naruto crossing his hands in front of his chest and frowning his brows "I'm just worried. If you move too much, you will jeopardize your feet. I'm not risking for something like that to happen if I can avoid it."

Sighing softly, "Don't think too much. Your brain's going to hurt, dobe." teased sasuke

"You're such a bastard, teme!" naruto said with pout in his lips.

Sasuke smirked and merely answered with his famous, "Hn."

Rolling his blue eyes "Well.. if you can take care of yourself, I will take my shower now" said naruto while turned around and walking to the stairs.

Waving his hand, in somewhat lazy manner, sasuke finally said "Yeah, yeah.. whatever." and continue to reading his newspaper.

The TV actually on, and broadcasting something that looked like a financial news. "What are you doing?" ask naruto, making sasuke cast a quick glance back at the blond before getting back to the tasks at hand.

"What do you thing, dobe? I'm typing something" grunted the raven, his voice laced with annoyance for being disturbed.

Naruto huffed, "I mean, what are you typing, teme?"

"Some tasks from the college. I want to finished it today." mumbled sasuke. Still continue typing his tasks.

"Hm.. good luck then" said naruto while headed out to the door "I'm leaving now." turning the door knob open, and he waved then letting the door close behind him.
